Abstract:
A device within the network receives a domain name service (DNS) request for an address of a first resource outside the network, the first resource associated with a security policy of the network. An address of a second resource within the network is returned to the device within the network in response the DNS request, the second resource address having previously been associated with the first resource address. A first encrypted connection is established between the device and the second resource, and a second encrypted connection is established between the second resource and the first resource, to facilitate encrypted communication traffic between the device and the first resource. The encrypted communication traffic passing between the device and the first resource is selectively decrypted and inspected depending on the address of the first resource.
